	.. "A New Earth - Awakening to your Life's Purpose" by Eckhart Tolle"

	LG.jpg This book is in Oprah's book club and Oprah and Eckhart Tolle d
	id a 10 week webcast bookclub on it. So in addition to reading on your
	 own\, Oprah has a weekly exercise posted on her website and a video w
	ebcast that you can also do in between our weekly get togethers to hel
	p digest and re-enforce what you are reading. Then when we get togethe
	r we can further discuss what we are learning and how it's impacting o
	ur lives directly. This week's exercise at: "A New Earth" Oprah Book C
	lub Exercise: Week 2 <-- click It's a deep thought and very profound b
	ook\, so the more we tools we have available to help us "get it"\, the
	 better. Description: Building on the astonishing success of The Power
	 of Now\, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the cu
	rrent state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this st
	ate\, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic min
	d\, is one of dangerous insanity. Tolle tells us there is good news\, 
	however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. H
	umanity now\, perhaps more than in any previous time\, has an opportun
	ity to create a new\, saner\, more loving world. This will involve a r
	adical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely 
	new one. In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness\, T
	olle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousn
	ess operates. Then gently\, and in very practical terms\, he leads us 
	into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly a
	re—which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently t
	hink we are—and learn to live and breathe freely. Please purchase thi
	s book and read the chapters listed at top of event before our next bo
	ok club. Don't be shy\, come join us. If you have already read the boo
	k\, we encourage you to re-visit it and join us. We are open to guest 
	speakers that are knowledgable on the book or teachers on this particu
	lar subject to join us to give us better insight. You can purchase thi
	s book and many more from our group's spiritual bookstore at: BucketLi
	stFun.com/reading.php 20% of proceeds will be donated on our groups be
	half to various non-profit charities and spiritual centers here locall
	y in the Coachella Valley. Important Note: It is a book club\, so it's
	 important that you actually read the book. Although it's at lunch tim
	e\, the conversation needs to stay on target and relevant to the book 
	and how it's applicable in your life. If you have any questions\, plea
	se contact Dawn P.S. Space is limited. The bookclub is limited to 12 t
	o keep it intimate and allow everyone time to share. Because of the de
	pth of the material\, this is an 18+ (adults only) book club.\n
